Fiscal Strategy Report 2017

The Fiscal Strategy Report sets out the Government's fiscal strategy in areas such as the balance between operating revenues and expenses, and its debt objectives. The report includes the Government's long-term fiscal objectives and short-term fiscal intentions plus fiscal trends covering at least the next 10 years.

The Government must explain changes in the Fiscal Strategy Report from the Budget Policy Statement and the previous year's Fiscal Strategy Report and any inconsistencies between these documents.

Note that the Projection Assumptions, previously published as an Annex to the Fiscal Strategy Report, are now published as a note accompanying the Fiscal Strategy Model.
